First Triathlon World Series races of the year from Yokohama this weekend.  It’s live on the BBC if you can get that, otherwise on Pay TV streaming.

A bronze for  Kingma in Yokohama, her first World Triathlon Series podium finish! Two Americans finished before her.

 

I'm not sure how strong the field in this race was though.

Varga DNF the cycling part, that is very likely the end of his dream for 3rd Olympics in a row..

 

One of the best (if not the best) swimmer in the Triathlon circuit. would be really sad to not having him at the Olympics

Not 100%, but lots of good names. 

 

 

She deserved it: put in a huge effort on the bike, got away with Taylor Knibb , and built up a two minute lead.  Lost space on the run, but job done.  Is that an Olympic Q for her?

Happy to hear that! She was already qualified, I think mostly thanks to a good result in the 2019 world championship.

 

From what I saw last year it was American and Brittish women that dominate the field. Are these events still internal qualifiers for them?

I think it must be. Hamburg is cancelled as of now, but that is usually sprint races & a relay, so there are no more races until August.
